Icons with a vintage charm seem to be popping up everywhere lately . . . and bicycles are one of them! Whenever we see bicycles we think of leisurely rides down a country lane. It’s a little bit of a nod to simpler days when life was a bit slower, and people weren’t so anxious to rush around with their To Do lists. Cindy Royal shows us that it is as “easy as riding a bike” to add bicycles to our papercrafting, particularly cards. Check out her three samples showcasing three different types of bikes below!
